In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a powerful tool for individuals and couples facing infertility. At Wellnest Fertility, we guide you through each step of the IVF process with personalized care and support. Here’s what you can expect from your IVF journey with us:
Your IVF journey begins with a thorough consultation where we assess your unique fertility needs. We’ll review your medical history, lifestyle factors, and any previous fertility treatments. Our team will recommend any necessary diagnostic tests—such as blood work, ultrasounds, and semen analysis—to gather critical information about your reproductive health. This will help us create a personalized IVF treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Once your treatment plan is set, we’ll begin ovarian stimulation. This phase involves hormone injections designed to stimulate your ovaries to produce multiple eggs. Regular monitoring through blood tests and ultrasounds will track your response to the medications and ensure the process is moving forward as planned.
When your eggs are ready, we’ll schedule a minor procedure to collect them. The egg retrieval (aspiration) is done under sedation for your comfort. Using a thin needle, we collect the mature eggs from your ovaries. The procedure typically lasts 20-30 minutes, and you can return home the same day.
After retrieval, the eggs are fertilized with sperm in our lab. Depending on your needs, we may use traditional insemination or ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) to achieve fertilization. The fertilized eggs are cultured for several days, monitored for growth, and developed into embryos.
Once your embryos have reached the optimal stage, we will transfer one or more into your uterus. The embryo transfer is a quick, non-invasive procedure that doesn’t require anesthesia. The goal is to allow the embryo(s) to implant and grow. You’ll be given instructions on rest and aftercare following the transfer.
About 10-12 days after the embryo transfer, we’ll perform a blood test to check for pregnancy. If the test is positive, we’ll monitor your hormone levels and schedule ultrasounds to confirm the pregnancy and check for a heartbeat. If the test is negative, we’ll review your options and discuss potential next steps.
Throughout your IVF journey, you’ll have continuous support from our dedicated team. Whether you’re celebrating a successful pregnancy or navigating challenges, we’re here to offer guidance, emotional support, and follow-up care.
